Smoke has more than one use. You fail that mark.

you forgot this question
when joining a server, how do you go about getting your sniper kit?
1. join squad, ask squad leader if a sniper is needed for overwatch/intel etc
2. join squad, run to crate grab sniper kit, go find random spot to be 1337 and rack up kills
3. create "OMG 1337 SNIPXOR!!11" squad, possess sniper kit as squad leader.
4. join squad, get sniper kit. leave squad.

when i'm a sniper, i only report vehicle positions + lase them if we have air support. infantry, i just kill ;D i'm not into that "play the whole round reporting all enemies you see and only shoot key targets" thing.
oh, and i like to have a spotter cause of the grappling hook and extra set of eyes.

You make snipers sound arcadey "I got 50 kills i is leet sniper". No a sniper is better used as a spotter for your squad wether it be inf, armour, chopper or fast air. Also you can't use a pistol that well but you lone wolf it anyway? Aren't you just doomed to loose you kit?

He shouldn't have to use his pistol if he's good.

Check for everything and 100% for LEET sniper
I think u forgot a VERY important part, which is basic survival when being hunted down by a squad who uv pissed off.
I managed to lure the search and destroy squad into canyons and position myself so that they were all facing away from me, then started to shoot and scoot, terrorizing them. Got their SL first, then their medic when he got to the SL, then started to pick off the whole unit till one was left.
I left the last guy, and went back to the city, telling the last guy in chat "Tell the others what you have seen".
Im not even kidding.
So its important to have VERY good escape routes, and that you never pick a spot where there is only one way in and one way out.

Man oh man, I think I have more kills with a pistol than an M14. However, I have actually counted all my sniper kills, and deaths. I am going 86-13 as sniper, and I have well over 63 kills with pistol

Assuming sometimes is a 1/2 point and rarely is 0, I'd score a 10.5. Again, if I was going for camouflage, not kills, I could do a much better job. But I prefer to just hang back and risk it - heck, I've had several close quarters snipes.

Well this is definetly not good news then. We have about 4 snipers and one spotter. And yes, I do work with a spotter, but he's usually another sniper. I can't use the pistol too well, becuase-well pistol Vs. 6 Automatic Assault Rifles. I rarely position myself in a place where I can easily be flanked.

Astromici i apologise for accusing you of being a lonewolf, fair do if you have a sniper as a spotter
